My Husky 359 recent purchase

[JT78]

Wow you robbed that old man. Good looking saw looks like the older version that didnt have the cat muffler. The 359 responds well to some muffler work and port work they are just monsters for a 59cc saw.

I've looked at the 359 as it seems it would fit most of my cutting needs well.
You did well on this deal. Let us know how you like it after you get some time behind the wheel. Personally I'd prefer the older ones without the cat muffler so you did good there as well.

I saw a fairly new one in action and the cat muffler got so hot it was melting the plastic engine shroud.

Nice looking used saw and good price. As JT78 mentioned they cut like their a lot bigger than 59cc.

Picked this up the other day from an elderly man who wasn't strong enough to start it anymore. It's in EX cond, and he hasn't used it but a couple times. His son used it then, as he couldn't. Runs great! I got it for 150.00

Good deal for you, I'm a 359 fan, some on here love them some don't think they're that good. Regardless you got a good saw for the price.

Are you making "wood" pidgeons for shotgun training?

Good score,

The fabled MS361 doesn't have nothing on the 359.

Open up that muffler a bit and she will impress you even more.
